Hot outback days call for cool swimming pools and BIG4 MacDonnell Range Holiday Park really delivers. This park has four pools plus a giant twisting 31-metre-long water slide. As night falls, wrap yourself in a blanket and swap stories around the communal fire pits. The kids will love zooming the BMX track and testing out the pedal karts. Make sure you try the famous pancake breakfast held every Sunday morning all year round.
Just 15 minutes’ drive outside of Darwin, there’s always something happening at Darwin FreeSpirit Resort. The Kidz Korner runs craft, games and animal activities while mums and dads are looked after with live entertainment and great dining options.
Hidden Valley Holiday Park is one of those parks that does the basics really well. Friendly staff are happy to arrange tours of the local area and fishing trips. Accommodation includes powered and ensuite sites, plus a range of villas, cabins and lodges.
HOWARD SPRINGS
The water park at BIG4 Howard Springs Holiday Park has water pistol stations and a huge tipping bucket – perfect for cooling off on a hot Darwin afternoon. Stay in any of the park’s cottages, cabins and villas, or make use of the powered and ensuite sites.
For access to the natural wonderland of Nitmiluk Gorge, there’s no better spot than Nitmiluk Caravan Park. With shady powered and unpowered sites, plus glamping tents and chalet accommodation there’s space for all budgets and holiday styles.
